Mask mandate return? HHS report wants to ‘encourage or mandate’ masking to stop long COVID
FoxNews.com ^

Posted on 11/22/2022 5:03:23 PM PST by matt04

Masking and social distancing should be encouraged or even mandated once more in public in order to protect people from COVID-19 and from the possibility of suffering from "Long COVID," according to a new report from the Department of Health and Human Services.

The report, commissioned by HHS and produced by research agency Coforma, calls for a broad range of government policies to help people who continue to deal with the lingering effects of COVID. Those policies include an awareness campaign, funding for long COVID support groups, financial support for students and workers, and new health benefits for COVID victims.

Reinstating a mask mandate may be the most controversial recommendation in the report, which says ending that mandate in late 2021 and 2022 is making it harder for people with long COVID.

"The lifting of mask mandates and indifferent attitude toward masking and social distancing typical in many public and private places further isolates people with Long COVID," the report said. As a result, policymakers should "encourage or mandate policies and protocols regarding masking and social distancing in public spaces," it said.

A whole lot of once-respected corporations have gone belly-up when they lost their credibility with the people. The US government is nothing more than a gigantic corporation with a CEO (ostensibly Joe Biden), a Board of Directors (Congress), employees (thousands of agency lackeys) and a whole bunch of shareholders, most of whom are extremely ticked off.

Enron, anyone?

I was quite amused in the cold winter at the height of the pandemic seeing people on the street with all that frozen breath streaming from their masks.

Yeah. That’s working.

This isn’t about muzzles.

It’s about providing an excuse for Deep State’s latest heist, this one for a cool $10 bil, from the public treasury.

The government is like a giant version of FTX, just financially less sound.

Around here people generally werent wearing them the first time around. Even local doctors are secretly admitting that they knew it was somewhere between hype and hoax last time.

If most of us around here gave them the finger last time and they have no repeaters for their propaganda other than the media then who is going to coerce the gullible? Arent people elsewhere going to hear that the cooties didnt and arent killing people by the truckload despite no masks?

The government no longer has any recognized authority to make any mandate in too large a percentage of the population. A much larger percentage are on to the con now, general disobedience would entirely shatter any veneer of authority they still had among the weak. Are they so blind and desperate that they would attempt that gamble now? What happens when the rest give the fed the finger too?

About a week ago we had a abnormally cold start to the day. I had to work early that day and was driving in around 6:15 AM and saw some lady walking alone, masked up. You could see all the moisture every time they exhaled.

It just makes the pointlessness completely obvious, doesn’t it?

Anyone with so-called long covid can fly down to French Guiana. There are 3 islands off the coast on which they can live.

Masks are useless, unless they are the equivalent of a full-seal gas mask or fed by self-contained breathing apparatus.
